Bundler is the Best
Lock down which project is using which Ruby gems, on which versions, with Bundler! Gem versions can be a pain to manage, especially if you or your team members work on multiple projects simultaneously, or if you work with contractors, temps, etc. Case in point: projects stall, people leave, and hand-offs often don’t include robust documentation.
Using Bundler is a great practice if you aren’t going to be working on a project forever and someone else will have to pick up where you left off, if you are working on one legacy project and one bleeding edge project, or if you frequently come back to projects after not working on them for some amount of time. Additionally, it can be difficult to get the right gems (dependencies on specific versions) if you have multiple versions on your system. Setting up, managing, and updating your ruby gem environment is a tedious task. Bundler can help!

February 8, 2013; The Day Ahead
A major snowstorm hitting the East Coast on Friday was adding uncertainty to the mortgage-backed securities (MBS) markets. With fewer participants than Treasuries and stocks, MBS prices are more susceptible to volatility when events decrease overall participation. If Treasuries hold their ground, MBS prices should remain near intermediate support levels set from prices on Thursday afternoon. Broader bond markets also face recent weakness, leaving Treasury yields little room to rise before facing challenges, making it difficult to find major motivation on Friday.

RALPH WALDO EMERSON
(1803–1882)
The durability of Emerson for the general reader is one measure of his genius.
Now, two centuries after his birth, the forum and the marketplace echo his words
and ideas. As Ralph L. Rusk suggested, this is partly because “he is wise man, wit,
and poet, all three,” and partly because his speculations proved prophetic, having
as firm a practical relationship with the conditions of our present age as with the
history of humankind before him. “His insatiable passion for unity resembles Ein-
stein’s” as much as Plato’s; and this passion unites serenity and practicality, God
and science, in a manner highly suggestive for those attempting to solve the dilem-
mas which have seemed most desperately urgent in our time.
Emerson was born to the clerical tradition; his father was pastor of the First
Unitarian Church of Boston and successor to a line of nonconformist and Puritan
clergymen. William Emerson died in 1811, when the boy was eight, leaving his
widow to face poverty and to educate their five sons. At Boston Latin School, at
the Latin school in Concord, and at Harvard College (where from 1817 to 1821
he enjoyed a “scholarship” in return for services), young Emerson kindled no fires.
His slow growth is recorded in his journal for the next eight years. He assisted at
his brother William’s Boston “School for Young Ladies” (1821–1825), conducting
the enterprise alone the last year. In 1825 he entered Harvard Divinity School; in
spite of an interval of illness, he was by 1829 associated with the powerful Henry
Ware in the pulpit of the Second Unitarian Church of Boston. That year he mar-
ried Ellen Tucker, whose death, less than two years later, acutely grieved him
throughout his life.
In 1832, in the first flush of a genuine success in the pulpit, he resigned from
the ministry. At the time, he told his congregation he could no longer find inherent
grace in the observation of the Lord’s Supper, and later he said that his ideas of
self-reliance and the general divinity of humanity caused him to conclude that “in
order to be a good minister it was necessary to leave the ministry.” His decision
was not the result of hasty judgment. These ideas had long been available to him
in his study of such nonconformists as Fénelon, George Fox, Luther, and Carlyle.
They were later made explicit also in his poem “The Problem,” printed among the
selections in this volume. Six years after his resignation from the ministry, in his
“Divinity School Address” (1838), he clarified his position and made permanent
his breach with the church. The transcendental law, Emerson believed, was the
“moral law,” through which human beings discover the nature of God, a living
spirit; yet it had been the practice of historical Christianity—“as if God were
dead”—to formalize Him and to fundamental ...

She wrote over 1,775 poems during her life but only a small number were published before her death. Dickinson was a very private person who spent much of her adult life in near seclusion in her family home in Amherst, Massachusetts. Her poems often use imagery, figurative language, and unusual structures to explore themes of mortality, faith, and the natural world.
Eliot and modernism
T.S. Eliot was a leading English poet and figurehead of the Modernist movement in the early 20th century. He was born in the United States but moved to England to study at Oxford University, becoming a British citizen. Eliot found religion in 1927 and viewed the modern world as fragmented and despairing. Modernist writers like Eliot employed objective, imagistic language over direct expressions of feelings to capture this fragmented world influenced by industrialization and mass society.
Newspapers and progress
The document provides historical context about 19th century England striving to improve through scientific and technological advances like gas lamps, steamboats, and railroads. Newspapers were how Victorians measured progress by gathering worldwide news. The Times of London became more popular and objective.

Mary wollstonecraft
Mary Wollstonecraft was an 18th century British writer and advocate for women's rights. She grew up in poverty but received an education, working as a governess and starting a girls' school. She was the mother of Mary Shelley, author of Frankenstein. As one of the first major feminists, she attacked restrictions on women's freedom and education in her writing. Her most famous work, A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, criticized the poor education available to women, which focused on "ladylike" skills and not intellectual development. It also criticized societal expectations that women should stay at home and argued this limited education made women "silly and vain".
Romanticism
Romanticism was an artistic and philosophical movement that began in Germany and England in the late 18th century and spread to America by the mid-19th century. It valued emotion, imagination, nature, the exotic, and the individual over reason and society. Romantic artists and thinkers sought to embrace inner feelings, the supernatural, creativity, and a simpler rural life rather than the corruption of cities.
Romantic Poetry and William Blake
William Blake was a British Romantic poet active from 1757 to 1827. He experimented with a printing technique called illuminated printing or relief etching to publish books combining his written poems with engraved illustrations, most notably in his collection Songs of Innocence and of Experience. This work contrasted innocent childhood perspectives in "Songs of Innocence" with more experienced and cynical views in "Songs of Experience" to explore Blake's belief that the world corrupts childhood innocence.
Lyrics Poetry and Wordsworth
Lyric poetry expresses the personal thoughts and feelings of a single speaker. It originated as songs accompanied by a lyre in ancient Greece. While no longer set to music, lyric poems still have musical qualities. Some common types are odes, elegies, and sonnets. Lyric poetry uses figurative language, sound devices, and imagery to create musical effects. William Wordsworth was a major English Romantic poet who believed in social justice and spent his childhood in the countryside, influencing his poetry.
Longfellow & Holmes

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
